I have had two pairs between last year and this year and have never had any problems.  If you're skiing strictly park at a smaller mountain they are legit!

I've had mine since december and skied 5 days a week every week since then. they can't delam they dont have a top sheet. mine aren't waterlogged and are chipped as fuck on the sides... you obviously don't know what you're talking about.


I highly recommend these to anyone who skis a lot of park, and BANGS their skis up on rails. mine are holding up better than any ski I've ever had
